"Bad neighbourhood" sites

Hello,
Is there someone who can offer some advice as to how to figure out if the sites I'm linking to are considered "bad neighbourhood" sites.

Apart from checking if they are appearing in the SERPS are there any other ways?

Thanks a bunch

 

Well aside from the obvious MFA, duplicate, spammy content I would give this thread a good read.

 

try to add porn or adult links...

 

Any site that is not related to your by the nature of its topic

 

i agree - but i dont think that is considered " bad neighbourhood"- it might not bring us PR juice .

 

Any site that promotes any type of illegal activity would be considered a bad
neighborhood.

 

Why are you linking to any sites?

Don't you mean getting links from?

I'll tell you one thing to watch out for are those WPMU sites. They have really become bad neighborhoods. (Wordpress Multi-user sites where anyone can make a blog. As a matter of fact they are excellent for Google-bowling your competition. You need software of course. But this is all very black hat so if you don't know what I'm talking about, good - keep it that way.)

 

Any site that has full of spammy post.

 

Thanx all for suggestions...

 

It might be worth looking at the Adsense guide for an idea of what a bad neighbourhood is. I know they may not necessarily be exactly the same, but I avoid linking to any site like these as a rule of thumb as it's probably best to play it safe.

 

Any More suggestion....

 

Check if that site is indexed in Google, use info:domain.com

 

Where you find this? Do you have something to support your comment?

 

I was thinking the same thing, nsseo, are you saying those links in your sig are Bad Neighbourhood links?
